Poland KSeF 2026: Ministry Clarifies Fixed Establishment VAT Rules for Foreign and Local Businesses

  • The Polish Ministry of Finance clarified VAT rules for determining a fixed establishment under the mandatory National e-Invoice System (KSeF) effective February 1, 2026.
  • KSeF invoicing applies to businesses with a registered seat in Poland and to foreign businesses with a fixed establishment in Poland involved in the specific transaction.
  • A fixed establishment requires sufficient permanence and adequate human and technical resources in Poland; simply having a Polish VAT number is not enough.
  • Sellers must provide structured invoices in an agreed format (e.g., paper or PDF) if the buyer lacks a registered seat or relevant fixed establishment in Poland.
  • The Ministry provided 15 practical examples to help businesses understand and apply these rules.
